Regular mei tai dimensions are suitable for grown-ups wearing sizes up to XL (app. 16 US/18 GB or 46 (F), 52 (I)). Grown-ups with sizes L-XL will have the upper straps' knot on their back. Grown-ups with lower sizes can have a knot in front, under the baby's bum, as per our instructions. Lower straps are suitable for a waist up to 160cm.

The right size will depend on your own measurements and how you prefer to carry your baby: size 4.2m is suitable for 'Kangaroo' and 'Cross Carry', and sizes 4.6m and 5.2m for the 'Wrap Cross Carry'.

The medium-sized sling (4.6m) is generally suitable for most adults and carrying styles, the 5.2m sling might be better for larger adults and/or babies. If your own body size is no more than 14 you can use Wrap Size 4.6m for all carrying methods. For body size 14 (GB) / 12 (US) we recommend Wrap Size 5.2m.

I love my diva essenza mei tei. I think of it as the first carrier I loved. It was my first mei tei. When I wear the baby it in, it's like the baby is part of me. It was so pretty and soft right out of the box. It was easy to set up the hood to support baby's neck as he fell asleep. Baby is now a year and still loves to fall asleep in the diva.
